Tyman plc, a leading international supplier of engineered components to the door and window industry, announces that following the announcement of the Group's results for the year ended 31 December 2018 and approval by the Remuneration Committee of the Company (the "Committee"), share awards ("2016 Awards") under the Tyman Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"), in the form of nil cost options over ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") vested on 18 March 2019.
 
The announcement of the Group's results for the year ended 31 December 2018 was the trigger event for the vesting of the 2016 Awards. The 2016 Awards were granted in March 2016 and covered the performance period from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018. Awards were dependent on the cumulative Underlying Basic EPS from continuing operations for the three years measured against a defined target range.
 
The Remuneration Committee has satisfied itself that the recorded Underlying Cumulative EPS is a genuine reflection of the underlying business performance of the Group over the performance period and accordingly has approved the vesting of the 2016 Awards at the calculated percentage set out below:
